She Flash-Married To His Rival novel Chapter 43

Chapter 43
As Moira realized Alfie hadn’t given up yet, her expression hardened. She bit her lip and glanced awkwardly at Barclay “I guess I won’t be going home tonight.”
Moira tightened her grip on her hands, fearing Barclay might refuse her to stay.
“it’s probably better if you stay over here anyway,” he said, turning off the TV.
Barclay set down the remote and looked at Moira, casually continuing, “I forgot to mention, we only have one bedroom in our house.”
Moira fell into silence immediately. She pondered for a moment, thinking he was probably joking. Your house is so big, but has only one bedroom?” she asked tentatively.
“It seems Eke you still don’t trust me,” Barclay said, getting up and walking towards her.
Moira watched him approach, startled. “Wh-What do you
ou want!”
“I’ll give you a tour,” Barclay said, lifting Moira up again.
She caught another whiff of his cologne. She wanted to refuse, but then again, she felt it wasn’t necessary. After all, he had already carried her many times before.
Barclay carried her upstairs. The rooms upstairs all had hidden doors, so Moira had no clue where the rooms were.
Barclay first took her to the study, then the gym, and finally to the bedroom at the end.
The bedroom was huge, with not just a bed but also a small living area, a closet of about 200 square feet, and a bathroom of about 100 square foot.
Barclay placed Moira on the bed and said, “The basement is the entertainment area, and below that is the wine cellar.”
Each functional area of the villa was very s pa c i o u s, After touring the rooms on the second floor, Moira felt it was quite normal to have only one bedroom. It seemed like each room was placed in the most suitable position.
Barclay didn’t disturb her thoughts; he just said, “I’m gonna take a shower,” and then headed into the bathroom.
Moira sat alone on the bed, marveling at its size. Then she glanced towards the bathroom and felt her face flush suddenly. “We’re not really married. We can’t sleep together!’ she thought. ‘Stay calm, don’t panic. This isn’t a big deal. When Barclay comes out, I’ll talk to him about it. He’s smart; he knows! only married him to spite Allie’
To truly rid herself of Alfie, Moira felt she couldn’t divorce Barclay just yet. On the contrary, their marriage needed to be upheld for as long as possible. ‘Well, I guess I’m a bit horrible. I am using Barclay. But I have no other choice, she thought.
While Moira was lost in thought, her phone suddenly lit up. She found a message from Juliet on WhatsApp. (Moira, I heard Alfie went to your house to bother you?
Then, Juliet sent a video of Alfie calling Moira to come down from downstairs. Moira wasn’t s
Moira replied: [He’s gone now,
Juliet: Oh, that’s good.]
Moira: [He’s now at Barclay’s doorstep
sure who took the video. After watching it, she felt annoyed.
Juliet was extremely shocked, sending several question marks in a row, then followed by a long string of messages. What’s he doing there? Does he want to fight Mr. Covington? How do you know he’s there now?)
Moira sighed and replied: [Because I’m at Barclay’s house.]
